Grails Jasper plugins - direct pdf output

I use jasper plugin (http://grails.org/plugin/jasper) in my grails application. I want to send direct pdf file to the browser.

package com.jasper

import org.codehaus.groovy.grails.plugins.jasper.JasperExportFormat
import org.codehaus.groovy.grails.plugins.jasper.JasperReportDef

class LabController {

    def jasperService
    def directpdf() {

        def reportDef = new JasperReportDef(name:'mbarang.jrxml', fileFormat:JasperExportFormat.PDF_FORMAT)
        response.contentType = 'application/pdf'
        response.outputStream << jasperService.generateReport(reportDef).toByteArray()
        return(false);
    }
}

Using DOMPDF in Yii

1. Download dompdf : https://code.google.com/p/dompdf/
2. Extract and copy dompdf folder to protected\vendor
3. Add the following command to the top of controller that will using dompdf

Yii::import('application.vendor.*');
require_once('dompdf/dompdf_config.inc.php');
Yii::registerAutoloader('DOMPDF_autoload');

1. Then we should can used like this

 public function actionDompdf() {
...
  $pdf = new DOMPDF();
...
 }

I think we can use the same way to including/import another library

Reset mikrotik to factory default using reset button

1. turn off mikrotik, press and hold button reset (using paper clip or something)
2. apply power (plug the device power), and wait until the ACT LED starts flashing. Now release the button to clear configuration.

Note: If you wait until LED stops flashing, and only then release the button - this will instead launch Netinstall mode, to reinstall RouterOS.

How to List All Installed Applications From the Command Line

One simple command to list all installed application :
wmic product

We can also save them into the .csv file with this comamnd :
wmic product get /format:csv > Software_%Computername%.csv

If this command failed with this error : Invalid XSL format (or) file name.
You should change the Regional and Language to English (US) and re-run the command it should be generated file like : Software_COMPUTERNAME.csv

Grails GORM mapping id column using sequence

I work with grails 2.2.4 and legacy database. The legacy database is using postgreSQL. The primary key filed is hdsj_id (bigserial).

class TableHeaderSuratJalan {

 // a lot of field
 ...

 static mapping = {
  id column: "hdsj_id", generator: "sequence", params: [sequence:"table_header_surat_jalan_hdsj_id_seq"]
  version false
 }

}

We need to specify the sequence name, in this example my sequence's name is table_header_surat_jalan_hdsj_id_seq. By default grails will use hibernate_sequence
